Simple checkbox for boolean variable

Thu, 01 Aug 2013 10:29:11 GMT

Hi All

This is conceptually simple, but I'm struggling to implement it. I want to set the value of a boolean variable with a single checkbox. So, assume I have a variable vVariable, I'd like to be able to set it to -1 or 0 (True or False) using a checkbox i.e. when the checkbox is ticked, vVariable is True and when it is not ticked, vVariable is False. (I'm currently attempting this with a List Box with a Windows Checkbox selection style override )

Hi,

you can assign the below expression to your vVariable.

if(GetSelectedCount(User_ID)>0,True(),False

())

you should create a text box and using condition and action make it act like checkbox, that why you can design it any way you want to, see attachment, in this model you can also see how you can base it on a checkbox dimension.
